You don't want to run an XDM login session?
To disable xdm for the current system boot:
$ /etc/init.d/rc.d/xdm stop
To disable xdm startups for *all* system boots:
$ /usr/bin/update-rc.d -f xdm remove
To allow *remote* xdm control but disable local control: comment out
the localhost display in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
To remove xdm from your system:
$ apt-get remove xdm
